Directly following WWII Calvin McClain began digging and selling peat from his bog (purchased in 1943) near Fircrest. During one days excavation he encountered a tunnel. The tunnel was known to be dug by the Chinese in the late 19th century*, thus the name ‘China Lake’ - currently one of Metro Parks’ inner city walking parks. Shortly thereafter Calvin moved his operation to what is now the Fred Meyer on 19th & Tyler streets. Then in the 70’s He and his son James moved to our present location at 3773 South 74th Street off of South Tacoma Way.
